As blood pressure is represented by 2 numbers‚ systolic blood pressure is the upper number. A normal systolic blood pressure is 120 or below although it largely depends on the physical properties and capabilities of the individual.

energy store. Pressure ulcers develop when a large amount of pressure is applied to an area of skin over a short period of time. Or‚ they can occur when less force is applied but over a longer period of time. The extra pressure disrupts the flow of blood through the skin. Without a blood supply‚ the affected area of skin becomes starved of oxygen and nutrients. It begins to break down‚ leading to the formation of an ulcer. These are the most common areas which are at risk of pressure ulcers they
